Since the Department of Education began cracking down on the failure to report riches from abroad, colleges across the country have become much more meticulous in their disclosure of assets from foreign funding, with some digging up records dating back to 2013.
A D.C.-based nonprofit has found that U.S. schools previously failed to report $1 billion, based on its comparison of the new disclosures with last year’s, now revealed to be massively incomplete.
Of that $1 billion, “About one-third came from countries known for their influence operations in America,” according to the Clarion Project, whose research challenges “Islamism, white supremacy, neo-Nazism, Antifa and other extremist ideologies.”...

And that $1 billion finding is “massively incomplete”.
These (most) schools are progressive/leftist/socialist (unAmerican) indoctrination centers. For many decades.
Their bitter fruits permeate America now.
Jail and fibbing to Federal LEO can be a real motivator.
After WWII Europe took care of collaborators.
They probably fear the IRS more than LEO.

After CWII here we will have to do the same thing.
How about funding by the ChiComs/PRC?
There might be a large scale of funding to our universities with STEM and computer wizardry.
Harvard’s Endowment is over $4 Billion! Where did all that money come from?

Secretary of State Clinton meets with Qatari Emir Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, 21 September 2010
BACKSTORY In November 2016, Reuters reported that "The Clinton Foundation has confirmed it accepted
a $1 million gift from Qatar while Hillary Clinton was US Secy of State without informing the State Dept,
though she had promised to let them review new or significantly increased support from foreign governments."
Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin opined that the Qatari gift "raised ethical questions" because of the nation's support for Hamas.[wiki]
Newly reported income by universities from Saudi Arabia amounts to $70 million, and dates back as far as 2013. Some of the data from Turkey is just as old, with $8.5 million initially left hanging across half a dozen U.S. universities. MORE: U.S. finally investigating secret foreign funding of universities
... Three universities failed to report a total of $117 million in income from Qatar. (Most of that figure is made up of funds Georgetown and Texas A&M University failed to report and are already under investigation by the federal government.)
... Years-late report of funds from ‘Confucius Institute Headquarters’
A federal law known as Section 117 requires colleges and universities to disclose all foreign incomes over $250,000 every six months. The Department of Education then releases it to the public. The University of Delaware and Xavier University in Louisiana, for example, “never reported” their foreign income to the feds until the most recent data collection cycle, the report said.
MORE: 2 in 3 colleges with Confucius Institutes violated the law Xavier isn’t the only offender in omitting years’ worth of income related to its Confucius Institutes. Several schools took six years and multiple federal investigations to turn over such information. The University of Kentucky, for example, waited until the latest collecting period to disclose $2.6 million it received from Hanban, the Chinese agency in charge of the institutes, all of which was collected between 2013 and 2016.
The College of William & Mary also waited until the most recent period to report more than $714,000 in gifts from Hanban from 2013 and on.
San Diego State University finally reported $3.8 million from Hanban spanning six years as well. It did not respond to multiple inquiries throughout the week of April 20. Identified as a threat by U.S. officials, the Chinese telecommunications company Huawei is known to dish out cash at American schools.

But it is not always mere money for tuition that is being wired to American campuses from overseas. Northwestern University, which has a satellite campus in Qatar, has received millions from that country. MORE: Harvard and Yale under federal investigation for funding requests
It set up a journalism program at its satellite campus, in conjunction with the government-owned news outlet Al Jazeera, that encourages student journalists to intern and collaborate alongside state-run media editors and reporters.
Qatar has spared no expense in its funding of American higher ed. Between 2011 and 2016, Qatar was the top funder of U.S. universities, forking about $1 billion in gifts to American academia, according to reporting from June 2019 by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
... In February, the feds dished out another pair of investigations into Harvard and Yale for failing to report hundreds of millions of dollars. The Department of Education also announced it uncovered $6.5 billion in previously omitted assets across 10 universities.
The Department of Education is scheduled to release its next biannual report on foreign income received by American colleges and universities in August.
